Publisher's summary
Get the brand-new novel from top 5 bestseller Louise Douglas.
A notebook full of secrets, two untimely deaths—something sinister is stirring in the perfect seaside town of Morranez…
It’s summer and holidaymakers are flocking to the idyllic Brittany coast. But when first an old traveller woman dies in suspicious circumstances, and then a campaign of hate seemingly drives another victim to take his own life, events take a very dark turn.
Mila Shepherd has come to France to look after her niece, Ani, following the accident in which both Ani’s parents were lost at sea. Mila has moved into their family holiday home, as well as taken her sister Sophie’s place in an agency which specialises in tracking down missing people, until new recruit Carter Jackson starts.
It’s clear that malevolent forces are at work in Morranez, but the local police are choosing to look the other way. Only Mila and Carter can uncover the truth about what’s really going on in this beautiful, but mysterious place before anyone else suffers. But someone is desperate to protect a terrible truth, at any cost…

In the spirit of Zoë Heller’s Notes on a Scandal and Tom Perrotta’s Mrs. Fletcher, an explosive and thought-provoking novel about the far-reaching repercussions of an illicit relationship between a young girl and a man 20 years her senior. Masterfully told from three diverse viewpoints - victim, perpetrator, and witness - Putney is a subtle and enormously powerful novel about consent, agency, and what we tell ourselves to justify what we do, and what others do to us.

In the spirit of Zoë Heller’s Notes on a Scandal and Tom Perrotta’s Mrs. Fletcher, an explosive and thought-provoking novel about the far-reaching repercussions of an illicit relationship between a young girl and a man 20 years her senior. Masterfully told from three diverse viewpoints - victim, perpetrator, and witness - Putney is a subtle and enormously powerful novel about consent, agency, and what we tell ourselves to justify what we do, and what others do to us.

You won't remember Mr. Heming. He was the estate agent who showed you around your comfortable home, suggested a financial package, negotiated a price with the owner, and called you with the good news. The less good news is that, all these years later, he still has the key. That's absurd, you laugh. Of all the many hundreds of houses he has sold, why would he still have the key to mine? The answer is; he has the keys to them all. William Heming's most at home in a stranger's private things.

As Adrian looks back on their brief but seemingly happy marriage, disturbing secrets begin to surface.

Excellent!
A great mix of exploring, relationships and grief, with suspense and a nod toward social justice.

Great performance, wish loose ends tied up
The story had characters that could have been flushed out more. I wanted to care about them and read to the last second hoping I would have some more answers. Maybe there will be a second one that completes the story. I liked it enough to hear it to the end, but felt cut off at the end. I had many more questions that needed answers.

Near Perfect
This is a beautifully constructed novel.
The narration is exceptional, the story is unique and engaging from start to finish.
The protagonist is extremely relatable in every way.
This is one of her best books, it’s as if her writing is truly evolving with every new story.
This book is descriptive, thoughtful, insightful, beautiful, and has a true mystery at it’s center.
I highly recommend it.

Really good mystery
Story does start out a little slowly and is drawn out so only those with the patience to stick with it will be rewarded when all the pieces come together and paint a picture of a horrible crime from decades before and a heroic search for Justice.
